WIND DANCE.
CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-Preparations are
already being silently made for the
great anti-Anarchist drama of the 18th
of November. Already orders have
. been given, it is said, to the members
OF the Second Illinois National Guard
that they will be required to be
on duty for full week, or perhaps
longer, prior to November 18th. The
probability is that the First regiment
will be called upon to do the same. 1t
is understood, however, that neither
of the regiments will be called from
in the case of absolute need.
The gloom which has marked
the condemned men with one exception
for several days past continues to
deepen. The exception is that of Par
sons who still INDUCES in his chronic
fippant. good spirits and laughs

however, make no longer an attempt
to conceal their feelings or to blind
| themselves to the fate which threatens
| them. Quite sensation was caused
to-day among the inmates of the
women's department of the Jail
by an official request that they
help make the shroudS and caps to be |
| used at the execution of the condemn
| ed seven. Some of the inmates were
! willing to do the work required, and |
were even anxious to participate in the |
CHASTITY task, but others were strongly |
opposed to rendering any aid, and |
these formed so large part of the |
inmates that it may be |
necessary to have the work done out
side the jail. The material, white I'M |
bleach muslin, has already been pur-
chased. Each shroud is to be shaped |
like bag, and only with holes on both |
ends and gathered closed at the top. |
The hoods will be half a yard |
in width, and about the same in |
length, gathered together at the top, |
which will be about ten inches across. |
The material is cut into shape and |
lacks nothing but the stitches that were |
asked to-day of the motley crowd of |
women malefactors confined in the /
same prison with the seven death /
sentenced Anarchists.
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 25.-The trial |
of Robert S. Hall, variety actor, for /
of oil 1
Lillian Rivers, an actress, on the 3rd /
of June last, resulted tonight in a |
verdict of murder in the first degree. |
Hall, who was married man, and had |
wife and two children living in st. |
Louis, became infatuated with Lillian |
Rivers, and lived with her as man and |
wife. The murder was the result of |
jealousy on Halls part. He shot her |
| twice and cut her throat with a razor. |
He then slaShed his own throat with |
| the razor, but failed to make fatal |
cash. The woman had but recently re-
| covered from wounds inflicted by her |
husband, Frank Rivers, an actor, who |
was jealous.
| ANARCHISTS IN LIMBO.
CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-Max Adeler, Ed |
mund Denss, Franck Biejlfeld and l.. |
Strawrawski, editors and owners of the |
Anarchist organ, the Arbeiter |
| Zeitung, were arrested this afternoon

out of events connected with the bomb
throwing at the Haymarket. The COM
plalnant is Ernest Legner, a whilOm
friend of August Spies. Within
the past fortnight the Arbeiter
Zeitung has published charges
| that Legner, whom it is claimed the
Anarchists expect to be an important
witness for them in the trial before
Judge Gary, had been hired by the
1 FNr.Q 70 lyaft
| after the fashion of the boodler in
| former Mic Schneider, and that when
the Anarchists trial came up Legner
was not to be found. Legner, through
his attorneys, takes strenuous except
| ions to those charges. and has caused
warrants to be issued for August Belz
and August Geffers, all of the Arbeiter
Zeitung. All of the persons arrested
on Legner's warrants were released on
bond of 5000 each for their appearance
| November 4.
